Mergers and Acquisitions

Clean files at every stage of a deal.

Every acquisition moves files three times: during due diligence, at closing and at integration. Data room uploads, deal documents and years of inherited file shares cross between companies whose security is not yet aligned. klearis rebuilds each one with Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR), from the first data room upload to the last migrated share.

The challenge

Files cross a deal boundary between parties that do not yet trust each other.

klearis rebuilds every file that crosses a deal boundary, from the first data room upload to the last migrated share.

DILIGENCE The data room is a two-way upload between organizations that do not yet trust each other.
CLOSING Deal documents are opened under time pressure by the most senior people in both companies.
INTEGRATION Integration imports years of inherited email, shares and archives into the acquirer's network.

A real example

A data room upload before signing.

The target uploads hundreds of contracts and financial statements to the data room. Advisors on both sides download and open them.

01 Files cross between companies that do not yet share security controls.
02 One spreadsheet carries an embedded object.
03 It is opened by people with access to deal information.
WHAT HAPPENS TO IT
ANTIVIRUS Scans clean, because this object has never been seen before.
SANDBOX Deal timelines leave little room for analysis.
KLEARIS Every file is rebuilt on upload. Both sides open clean copies.

Who it is for

Acquirers, targets, advisors and integration teams.

A transaction connects organizations before their security controls are aligned. Files move through data rooms and email and, after closing, whole inherited file shares.

ADVISORS Banks, law firms and consultants opening files from both sides.
TARGETS Data room uploads during diligence.
INTEGRATION Years of inherited email, shares and archives.
